Genetic Analyses of Seed Longevity in Capsicum annuum L. in Cold Storage Conditions [PDF]
Plants, 2023 Seed longevity is the most important trait in the genebank management system. No seed can remain infinitely viable. There are 1241 accessions of Capsicum annuum L. available at the German Federal ex situ genebank at IPK Gatersleben. C.

Heat Stress Factors Expressed during Seed Maturation Differentially Regulate Seed Longevity and Seedling Greening [PDF]
Plants, 2020 Heat Stress Factor A9 (A9), a seed-specific transcription factor contributing to seed longevity, also enhances phytochrome-dependent seedling greening. The RNA-seq analyses of imbibed-seed transcripts here reported indicated potential additional effects ...

Fungal Pathogens and Seed Storage in the Dry State
Plants, 2022 Seeds can harbor a wide range of microorganisms, especially fungi, which can cause different sanitary problems. Seed quality and seed longevity may be drastically reduced by fungi that invade seeds before or after harvest.

Genetic factors enhancing seed longevity in tropical japonica rice
Current Plant Biology, 2021 Seed longevity is a key trait to secure seed viability and vigor of farmer’s seed lots under the increased temperatures and humidity associated with climate change. While previous studies have found quantitative trait loci (QTL) for improved longevity in

Seed Longevity and Deterioration
, 2023 AbstractThe fundamental deteriorative processes that lead to loss of seed viability contrastingly vary between desiccation insensitive (orthodox) and desiccation sensitive seeds (recalcitrant). Orthodox seeds which undergo maturation drying are bestowed with protective mechanisms which guard the seeds against deterioration.
